From the time the Pilgrims arrived on American soil, faith in God played an important part in shaping our nation. Images of Moses adorn the Supreme Court in recognition of the Judeo-Christian origin of our laws. But it was Taxes, loss of Liberty and oppression from a mad king that led our Founding Fathers to write The Declaration of Independence and start The American Revolution. Today, those who stand for these ideals no longer call themselves The Silent Majority because we are silent no more.

Conservatives are fighting tooth and nail to stop the world-wide gun ban. Newly elected Kentucky Senator, Rand Paul, has vowed to fight to end Obama and Hilary Clinton's work with the UN to pass the "Arms Trade Treaty." Paul said, "Disguised as an 'International Arms Control Treaty' to fight against 'terrorism,' 'insurgency' and 'international crime syndicates,' the UN's Small Arms Treaty is in fact a massive, global gun control scheme.

The UN wants to make all firearms subject to international law

The Arms Trade Treaty could:

Prohibit firearm and ammunition manufacturers from selling to the public.

Prohibit any transfer of firearm ownership.

Require US citizens to deliver any banned firearms they own to the local government collection and destruction center or face imprisonment.

According to the Arms Trade Treaty Preparatory Committee, The UN is, "Concerned by the misuse of weaponry around the world, civil society organizations have successfully mobilized governments and parliamentarians to call for the global regulation of the conventional arms trade." It is outrageous to think that when a few violent groups get their hands on guns the UN wants to confiscate firearms from law-abiding U.S. citizens. The UN Arms Trade Treaty is not going to convince terrorists and other violent groups to stop obtaining or using guns. Instead, the Arms Trade Treaty will make turn innocent Americans into sitting ducks for thugs and criminals.

UN Flooded With Funding From Gun-Grabbers

International gun-grabbing groups are already grearing up to present their anti-gun data at the preparatory committee meeting for the new treaty in July. Support for the freedom crushing treaty has received a tsunami of new funding from the think tank Stockholm International Peace Research Institute.

According to their website, "SIPRI is an independent international institute dedicated to search into conflict, armaments, arms control and disarmament. Established in 1966, SIPRI provides data, analysis and recommendations, based on open sources, to policymakers, researchers, media and the interested public. SIPRI is named as one of the world's leading think tanks in Foreign Policy magazine's "Think Tank Index."

SIPRI received funding from the foreign ministries of Norway and Sweden to research gun running. That funding will be used to for SIPRI to engage in "unbiased" discussions at the Arms Trade Treaty meeting in July. One thing is for certain, those discussions will be biased.

While anti-gun groups like SIPRI have the red carpet rolled out for them at UN Arms Trade Treaty meetings, pro-gun groups like CCRKBA have been shut out of most of the discussions. In June of 2010, my wife, Julianne Versnel, and I both worked to veto anti-Second Amendment language in the Arms Trade Treaty. We attended as NGO (non-Governmental Organization) delegates. It's no surprise that NGO representatives were told that they would be shut out of most of the meetings.

Clearly, the UN doesn't want anyone interfering with the passage of this bill. We can't win this war against gun rights alone. We need the help of patriots like you to to pledge your support to STOP THE UN FROM ATTACKING YOUR SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS!

UN Arms Trade Treaty Will Turn America Into A Police State

The ugly truth is the Arms Trade Treaty will turn America into a total police state. If your firearm manages to squeeze through Obama's red tape, you can bet a new Obama appointed "gun task force" will be tracking the whereabouts of your gun at every moment. The "gun task force" will also be tracking YOU. If you think our government is overreaching now, just see what happens if this treaty is passed.

The UN Arms Trade Treaty Will Give Obama & His Cronies
Total Control Over Our Lives

Guns protect citizens from governments that abuse their power. From never ending spending binges, unbridled corruption and rampant tax hikes, it's clear that our government is already oppressing us. If our guns are gone, there will be no end to the abuse from our gangster government. If this treaty is implemented the free will of you and every other American will be destroyed.

And that's not all. If two-thirds of the Senate votes in favor of this treaty it will become global law. Two-thirds of the Senate isn't a big number. Please take action and help CCRKBA flood Congress with faxes opposing the UN Arms Trade Treaty.

CALL PRESIDENT OBAMA, 202-456-1111 and 202-456-1414 expressing your disdain and ABSOLUTE REJECTION of all GUN BANS.

DO NOT BE SILENCED - MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD!
